AD 301 Fundamentals of Design and Manufacturing

Group A

Engineering design process and its structure. Identification and analysis of need, product design specifications, standards of performance and constraints. Searching for design concepts; morphological analysis, brainstorming. Evaluation of design concepts for physical reliability, economic feasibility and utility.

Detailed design; design for manufacture, assembly, shipping, maintenance, use, and recyclability. Design checks for clarity, simplicity, modularity and safety. Standardization and size ranges. Reliability and robust design. Design organisation and communication, . technical reports, drawings, presentations and models.

Concept of manufacturing; classification of manufacturing processes. Fundamentals of casting. Basic understanding of commonly used casting processes (sand casting, investment casting and permanent mould casting processes). Fundamentals of metal forming; hot and cold working; basic understanding of primary metal forming processes (rolling, forging, extrusion and drawing processes, punching and blanking).

Group B

Fundamentals of metal cutting; tool-work interaction for production of machined surfaces. Classification of machining processes. Basic machining operations (turning, shaping, planning, drilling and milling processes).

Fundamentals of grinding and finishing; overview of unconventional machining processes; fundamentals of welding processes; introduction to primary welding and allied processes; selection of manufacturing processes. Design for manufacturability. Need for integration-commercial, economic and technological perspective; basic tools of integration; concept of a system.

Introduction to information technology and its elements. Introduction to group technology; introduction to simulation and database management systems. Elements of integration:-controllers, sensors, robots, automated machines; AGVs, AS, RS, etc. Product and process design- for integration; design for economic manufacturing; design for manufacturing integration. Introduction to computer aided process planning; selection of machine tools.

How I have Prepared for this Subject:-

This is a relatively easy subject, Just read the study material given by IEI and a text book referred by IEI. Fundamentals of Design and Manufacturing by Vijay Gupta is sufficient to prepare for this subject. Also read previous Solved question papers to know about the type of questions that will come in exams. All the best.

Books Recommended by the Institution of Engineers (India):-

1. Fundamentals of Design and Manufacturing by Vijay Gupta (Author), G. K. Lal (Author), N. Venkata Reddy (Author).

About this book:-

A systematic approach towards integration of design and manufacturing is essential for optimizing all elements of the integrated manufacturing system. This book is an attempt towards this approach and is intended to provide an introduction to the design process, the manufacturing processes and the tools for integration to young engineering students. Fundamental information on materials, manufacturing processes and integrated manufacturing are provided which will help the designer in the selection of most appropriate materials, processes and methods to transform his ideas into a successful product.
